Michael Rosenbaum News

After 10 years, Smallville is airing its final episode tonight on The CW. The two-hour finale will wrap up the journey of Clark Kent, so he can finally emerge as the Superman we know. Producers Brian Peterson and Kelly Souders reflected on their years in Smallville as the end of it all approached.

“It’s probably the theme that emerged this year, which is believe in heroes,” Souders said. “I think that has become incredibly important to us that we were able to work on a show that had such a positive message. The fact that we have such hardcore fans that have followed the show, I think that’...

FOX had its Television Critics Association presentation Tuesday, and from my front-row (literally) seat, I confirmed what I felt has been the case for awhile: while the network has consistently strong dramas, it still needs to find some reliable comedies - at least when it comes to ones that aren't animated.

Here's how the day played out:

The Chicago Code

The highlight of my day was easily the presentation for Shawn Ryan's new drama, The Chicago Code (premiering February 7). Given Ryan's pedigree as the creator of The Shield, The Unit and the recently axed Terriers, the buzz - and the ex...

Lois and Clark are heading to the boonies to cover the “Cherry Festival” (really?) when they get a double blowout. Clark heads to the nearest town to get a new tire while Lois hangs back with Charlotte Cavanagh, a little farm girl straight out of “Little House on the Prairie.” But when Clark returns to the car with a fresh tire, Lois is nowhere to be seen.

Even weirder, as Clark puts the tire in the trunk, he cuts his suddenly not-indestructible hand. A local constable agrees to help Clark search for Lois, who is taking a horse-and-buggy carriage ride with Charlotte back to her Amish-looki...

Clark’s self-doubt lingers as the episode opens with a nice synergistic shot of some Time Warner magazines with superheroes on the covers. Lois pops by to remind Clark that their 5-year high school reunion is the next day and she does not want to miss it (never mind that she was enrolled in Smallville High for all of 23 days, five of which she actually attended). The on-hold status of their relationship notwithstanding, Clark agrees to go.

Back at Smallville High, a beleaguered guidance counselor looks back over a decade of dealing with meteor-rock malfeasants (in early seasons of SMALLV...

Cassidy Freeman had the unenviable task of replacing, perhaps, the most infamous supervillain of all time, Lex Luthor. Her character on Smallville, Tess Mercer, toes the line on what her true motivations and agendas are ... which, of course, adds to her appeal. Cassidy joined us to discuss the upcoming end to the Smallville season and she does her best to discuss an ending that, well, she is not allowed to discuss.

Mike: You're from Chicago, are you a Cubs fan?

Cassidy: I'm not a huge baseball fan in general so I support both [Chicago baseball teams] because I support Chicago....

Smallville star Michael Rosenbaum (Lex Luthor) is leaving the show to start the next chapter in his life and career.

"Smallville" executive producers Darren Swimmer, Todd Slavkin, Kelly Souders and Brian Peterson; The CW Network; and Warner Bros. Television issued this statement: "It has been an honor and pleasure to work with Michael for the past seven seasons.

While Michael won't be a series regular and we won't have the pleasure of working with him ...

Smallville stars Kristin Kreuk and Allison Mack are not only co-stars, they're great friends and burgeoning business partners. Starpulse had an opportunity to chat with the actresses, who dished about their characters, staying out of the tabloids, and the development of their upcoming website geared towards college students.

I'd love to ask you both about spoilers for "Smallville," but the strike is going on. Are you finished working for now?

Kristin: We're getting to a point where now all we are shooting is what you guys are seeing. We're going to start winding down and wait u...
